There is still that off chance you get 2 deadly poison or 2 silence or 2 totemic might from him. He also does not impact the game enough. Play ysera she isnt a BGH target and yields better cards and often times more cards.

I am not sure about using Nefarian in any class or deck except for Control Priest, but I will tell you this, Nefarian>Ysera by a long stretch. Don't get me wrong, I love Ysera ( she is my second favorite card ) but she just does not get the job done fast enough like Nefarian does.

A good example is: I won a game against a Mage ( thx to Nefarian ) we were in a top deck war ( not good to be in when your a Priest and up against a Tempo Mage ) I did not know how I was gonna get that last 8 damage in before the Mage could top deck Fireball and kill me. I dropped Nefarian on turn 9 and he killed the next turn, but before he died he gave me a Pyroblast which won me the game.

This is my experience ( rank 6-2 ) time and time again with Nefarian, I realize there is a chance that you could get useless spells, but from my over 60 games played with him, he always 100% of the time gave me at minimum, spells that were very helpful and at best, game winning spells.

Write down every time you get cards from nefarion that don't win you games like that, I will bet its more than 50%. and I mean actual cards that help you win the game and not just winning the games anyway.

I have played over 70 games with Nefarian in my 9 mana slot ( Control Priest ) how many games have you played using Nefarian in any deck?  You cannot just use him for 15 games and then think you have the card figured out... I have never got a spell ( and were prolly 110 in total ) that I could not use in some way to HELP me win the match in the later stages.

As for game winning cards like pyro blast, crackle, kill command etc etc, I get them every 3rd game or so. The cards are not huge damage, but they are enough damage combo'ed with my Soul Priest damage to end game sooo much faster than before Nefarian came around. You & I are having a completely different experience with this card my friend. It has gotten to the point where I do not even give a shit if he gets BGH'ed, I just want the two spells he spits at me to end my games faster.

i always get a spell that really helps me out and sometimes completely flips the game. I'm glad tho because I paid a lot for BRM and this card has led to many hilarious moments but I just wish HS was more serious about competitive matches rather than goofy casual play. 

as far as the card goes it's pretty strong and surprisingly reliable given the RNG effect. I give it a 9/10. It is equal to or better than yersa. so very good indeed. 

Nefarian is awesome, but sometimes can break game completely. If it's like in my case when I have wallet-warrs mirror and my opp's Nefarian gave him 2 Crushes (!!!). It was just GG.

Playing dragon pally against a priest Nefarian gave me Circle of Healing and Shadow Word: Death. Circle of Healing was certainly useful when I cleared his board with my minions and then healed them back up, but Shadow Word: Death was absolutely game winning when he dropped Kel'Thuzad and Annoy-o-Tron on the following turn. I had absolutely nothing else that could have removed KT in time and he probably would have completely turned the game around without Nef's little gift.
